How can I connect my new laptop to the internet without unplugging my old computer? -

and also can I unplug my printer from the older computer and use it for the laptop and put it back, or do I have to buy another printer for the laptop? Thanks for advice

you can use the printer with the laptop. you might have to install the printer drivers before you are able to use it though. if you don t have a router nor wireless on your laptop you can buy another Ethernet card for your pc and run a crossover wire to the laptop. You will be able to do internet sharing. or if you don t have a router but have wireless on you laptop, you can buy a wireless AP for your PC. You will be able to do internet sharing. or Just get a router.

set up a small network using your old computer then go wireless with the new one that will allow 2 people to go on the net at one time.

u should make a pair to pair simple network between your computers. your PC with internet service can provide an internet sharing through net cable to your notebook. it s easy, but better to be done by a specialist.

get a crossover cable. or a router (so you can use the internet on your laptop too! set up a simple home office network. share the printer on the old computer. add the network printer on the laptop. it should install the drivers on the other computer.

If you are using cable internet you will need to buy a router in order to have both computers hooked to the internet at the same time. You will need to download the software for your printer to your laptop in order to use it. Then you will be able to hook up your printer to your PC or your laptop whenever needed.

u must have wireless net and GPRS phone to connect to I net from Laptop .yes,if u have a usb socket

Internet question: There are two ways to do this: 1. Get a router, either wireless, or wired. 2. Make one of the computers a router, if your computers are powerful enough. Printer question. No, you do not have to get another printer for the laptop, as long as your printer is a newer printer with USB. You will probably have to install the drivers for the printer, tho, in the laptop. You can do this with the printer CD or go to, say HP s website (if your printer is a HP, ditto for Cannon, etc) and they will probably have the printer drivers for you to download.

get a wireless connection, and yes you can do that with your printer
